If you are cleaning your rifle every time you are cleaning to much. Once you have a load dialed in, don't clean the rifle until the groups start to open up. Then clean and foul the bore again. Shoot til the groups start to open up again. I used to do the same thing as you. Now I don't clean my 257 weatherby very often, probably 120+ rounds at a minimum before cleaning for my 257.

My boss has a 2016 Ford F250 diesel and likes it alot. He drove one of our other salesman 2015 Dodge Cummins mega cab and said if he had to do it over again he might have went dodge. Another guy has a 2014 Duramax and is a die hard chevy guy. He loves it. The only problem with it so far has been a cracked radiator under warranty.

Any of you guys with diesels should really look at investing in bypass oil filter systems, and also 2 micron fuel filters. Especially the guy with the chevys that are killing injectors constantly. Bypass oil filters siphon off a small amount of oil all the time and sends it through a super fine filter to keep your oil cleaner longer. Dirty, sooty oil is the worst thing for motors. The biggest killer of newer style injectors is dirty fuel. Factory fuel filters dont cut it IMO and adding and aftermarket fuel filters will filter much finer and longer than factory. I have done DIY systems for both the above on my truck. The set of injectors cost me $3000 and I did the labor myself. I home built a fuel filter setup for $70. Cheap insurance if you ask me. DIY bypass oil filter kit cost me $130. Well worth it. It can be done cheaper if you are willing to drill and tap your valve cover on your own. If there is interest in these items let me know. I did small write ups on them and can post them here if need be too. Harley

On my 05 I take the cover off the air box and intake to out down to the turbo. It is 3 pop clamps and a hose clamp at the turbo. Takes 2 minutes total. Just don't forget to reconnect the sensor on the air tube or you will get a code.

Mine comes out the top in a plastic grocery bag. Nothing is spilled outside the bag. Mine is a 2005 Dodge Cummins. I have done it this way on both my Cummins trucks. My old 98.5, and my current 05. I learned the hard way about using an open top oil pan underneith, and a plastic bag on the filter. 3 gallons of oil can't flow through that little hole in the closed top plastic pans to not overflow them, and you can't take the filter out without spilling without the bag.

I still need to sight in my scope and finish load development. I will probably be shooting this round with the 257 weatherby because it is as ready as I can get. When is the due date for the targets?

The funny thing to me is I don't really like that barrel in the bright finish. It looks too busy, but once it is painted I think it looks good.

I would be willing to bet 15-17 in town and 16-19 on the highway is about the best you can hope for.

I doubt I will win against these guns and gunhands, but I am in. I may shoot 1 of 2 rifles. Savage 110fp in 300 win mag. Vortex Viper hs-LR scope Shooting hornady 208gr ELD-M bullets over h1000 Or Weatherby vanguard 257 weatherby mag. Redfield revolution 3x9x40 scope, timney trigger. Shooting 115gr Berger VLDs over h1000.

I will send you a way point later of where I found them last year when I get back to the office.

Pics?

300 RUM if you are going to keep one only and not build anything. I would keep them both, but I have a rule where I almost never sell guns...

Find the best scope you can afford and try to buy one step better...better glass is always better... I am just getting into long range, and working on getting better than basic scopes so I don't have a lot of room to talk yet, but I do know to get the best you can afford. Don't skimp on a scope or mounts. If you can't see it, you can't hit it. If you are going to get a scope to dial up and down make sure you read up on it's repeatability. If you can't get back to zero consistently then it isn't worth it.

in.

Calibers?

It would be hard for me to not talk crap and possibly punch that fat loud mouth from gold rush in the face, especially if he acts like he does on TV in real life. Cool pics though. One day I will make it to SHOT. This year will be conexpo for me and my son. Maybe next year will be SHOT.

Awesome.

You didn't know who Lularoe Ricinda Smith was on the return address? My wife has a label printer for her business so I had her ship it.

Sporter or bull barrel?

I will let you know where I found them on the east side of 20a if you need. Pm me if you need and I will.give you directions.

You said you use RP stamp in your 7mm. I can't use it in my 7mm so you get it for helping me out. Load it and shoot it. Most of it is probably once or twice fired.

What is the weight, and do you have a pic with the slide out out?

I shoot 1911 alot so grip safeties don't bother me. I went with the sig and am about to order a holster for it. I have yet to shoot it, but I like the fit and finish.

Does anyone have one? Thought? I am seriously considering getting one for my edc pistol. I have had my sig p250 for years and want to get back to a DA/SA pistol. My holster for the p250 is crapping out so now is the time to switch it up. I shoot 1911 so this sig aims right and appears to be a great bang for the buck gun.

Does anyone here do taxes and very knowledgeable about taxes and code? I normally do turbo tax, but this year my wife started a small business and I would like to have them done by someone who knows what we can/can't write off, and knows how to make sure we get the max. I have used H&R block in the past but I would rather pay someone on here my money if possible. or if you know a good tax person I would like that info too. I am in northwest phoenix. thanks harley
